Quetico Foundation

Thanks Portage Crew!!

The 2026 Quetico Foundation Summer Research team is now on site and has started our planned list of summer projects! One such project is the continuation of a long term Quetico Park specific Song Bird study, which dates back to 2014. In the month of May, the team (Lowen and Jaden in the first two photos, with Spencer centre in the third) deployed a set of Autonomous Recording Units at 17 different locations in the park. These will be collected back for processing at the end of the summer.

Welcome team & have a fun, productive summer!

Anyone else here looking forward to an upcoming Quetico trip this summer?! If so, what are you looking forward to most: the solitude? The fishing? The natural environment?Let us know in the comments!

So much life depends on water quality; we can never take it for granted!

What better way to cap off a deep backcountry trip than a sparkling sunrise over Quetico’s Pickerel Lake!
